Everything. Everyone. Everywhere. Ends.

A couple of years back D and I watched the complete series of Six Feet Under. For me there is life before and after watching this award winning series. I really believe it changed my relationship to my family and friends. I was a mess after watching this last episode... Watching this series is also how I came to love Tv-series, more than movies. You get to know these complex characters over time, -to love or hate them.

Anyways, if you have'nt seen this great series yet, but are planning to do so, I'll advise you not to watch this clip, so you don't spoil the ending.

Oh, and the music is great! Sia - breathe me.

Have a nice evening!

Trolls!!

We went to see this Norwegian mockumentary last night, and it was GREAT! The "Troll hunter" has been sold to many countries, so it might be appearing on a cinema near YOU! Go see it, -it's great fun!!

And then there was snow...

Last night we had this winters first snow in Oslo. Today we woke up to a lovely cold and clear day with the city dressed up in a cake frosting-look.. beautiful! It's time to put the sandals and the shorts into the storage, and check if we have a decent amount of wollen socks left from last winter. I absolutely love the change of seasons... Colder weather and less daylight means I can spend more time with some of my "friends"..

Big in Japan

Last night I watched a documentary on the Canadian band Anvil with Sigrid. Although I've seen it once before, it made me all fuzzy and warm again. One word: Dedication. I think every person who's ever played in a band that never made it to the charts (... or even just pretended to play guitar whenever listening to Gary Moore in they're pink room as a kid...) will probably love this film.

But the film is also about lifelong friendships, and family support... -And big 80's hair do's, man!

Annoyed

Annoyance is an unpleasant mental state that is characterized by such effects as irritation and distraction from one's conscious thinking. It can lead to emotions such as frustration and anger. The property of being easily annoyed is called petulance, and something which annoys is called a nuisance. (from wikipedia)

It really annoyes me that I've started to care if Tori and Dean gets their house ready in time for their next kid to arrive.

Star Wars

How incredibly cool is this?? Can be bought on Etsy at homesweetwalls
I want one!

TV is OK!

Lately I've enjoyed the company of my television, to the extent that our Etsy shop has suffored a little. I've enjoyed Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Lovely Bones, Coraline, Shameless and of course Dexter.

Good movies and series and the heroes that live in them, deserves to be enjoyed.
In the meantime our little shop gets a little updated every now and then, so stay tuned!

Golden Saturday

There's something about the things that were filmed in the 60's that makes me think about that decade as golden. Maybe it's just the fact that the pictures that dates from that time in general has more yellow in them, and that it makes everything looks warmer. Maybe it's because the pace was a bit slower, and everything just looks a bit calmer, more friendly, distant and dreamy.. And the fact that I never got to experience that time, since I was born almost 20 years too late.

Someone at work showed me this video on Wednesday, and the tune has been stuck on my mind since that. It makes the days seem more golden.. Enjoy your weekend!

Cheese commercial

This one cracks me up EVERY time it is on TV:

Pre weekend

Thursday. What a wonderful day. It's only one more day of work before the weekend sets in. This Saturday I'm off work, and I'll do my best to fill the day with all the things I love to do.. and probably put off all the things I should be doing.. Last Saturday I did work, and here's what that looks like at times

Three of our fantastic studio assistants. Just say the word and they will be on their feet, running and lifting really heavy things really fast. Looks like they're sitting on a gold mine on this pic..

Commercial break

Last week Sigrid and I worked on a commercial film for the Norwegian lottery.
We did the set design, and this is how it looked like:

Sigrid was watching the monitor closely..

If you live in Norway, you'll soon see this livingroom during the commercial breaks. And if you're wondering who's steering the bird inside the coo coo clock.. well.. e-hem. It's me!

-Toooom Bergerooooon!

I can't help myself. I think America's Funniest Home Videos is one of the funniest things currently running on TV. The best clips are the ones with cats or dogs. Tonight I saw the funniest clip of a cat caught in a paper bag who had a serious freak out. I could'nt find that particular clip, but I found another one: http://video.aol.com/video-detail/afv-s19e04-cats-from/78105432 I would like a cat now..
